Bug#958487: inkscape: Inkscape v1.0 requires libcairo v1.17
Package: inkscape
Version: 0.92.5-1
Severity: normal
One of the new features in Inkscape v1.0 is the ability to export PNG
images with 16-bit colour depth:
https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=Release_notes/1.0#Export_PNG_images
However, this depends on the corresponding feature in the Cairo graphics
library, which only became available in version 1.17.2, released over a
year ago:
https://cairographics.org/news/cairo-1.17.2/
But this version is not yet available in the Debian archive, even in
experimental:
# apt-show-versions -a libcairo2
libcairo2:amd64 1.16.0-4 install ok installed
libcairo2:amd64 1.16.0-4 stable ftp.us.debian.org
No stable-updates version
libcairo2:amd64 1.16.0-4 testing ftp.us.debian.org
libcairo2:amd64 1.16.0-4 unstable ftp.us.debian.org
No experimental version
libcairo2:amd64/testing 1.16.0-4 uptodate
Cairo v1.17.2 in turn depends on libpixman v0.36, which is available in
the Debian archive. However, it is also over a year out-of-date; the
current version is v0.40:
https://www.cairographics.org/releases/
Please upgrade the Debian version of libcairo, and possibly also
libpixman, to the current release, so that the new 16-bit colour depth
functionality in Inkscape can be supported.
